“Cost cutting was not the key driver, but it has become one of the outcomes of what we’re moving to. Roughly, there is a 50% saving in certain areas of our current IT expenditure by moving to the cloud – so we get more for less. For every £1,000 saved in IT that’s potentially 2 weeks’ worth of people being within one of our care homes. So, the more effective we are at spending our cash the better it is for the community as a whole.”

“We want to ensure that in order to deliver our digital strategy that ICT is seen as an enabler and not a blocker or a hurdle to development. So we see Microsoft 365 as a key tool to enable us to do that. To enable us to move our services forward, to support our staff so that they become a digitally aware staff and to enable us to continue to deliver the quality services that we currently do.”

“The IT just works – and that’s what students expect. With NSX, IT is a well-oiled, slick machine. As soon as we foresee any disruption, we can move infrastructure around easily, with students none the wiser as to what’s happening behind the scenes.”

“Phoenix Software optimised and streamlined our licensing requirement which resulted in a considerable cost saving. They support Basildon Borough Council with our licensing and cloud services. I would recommend Phoenix Software as a trusted partner.”

“One of the biggest benefits we experience is having Phoenix liaising with Sophos on our behalf. The pricing they provide us with is excellent and we can’t fault either company – they are both doing their bit to help the charity sector.”
